"Ronald, the hero, is very like the hero of 'Quentin Durward.' The
lad's journey across France, and his hairbreadth escapes, makes up as
good a narrative of the kind as we have ever read. For freshness of
treatment and variety of incident Mr. Henty has surpassed himself."
--Spectator.

"A praiseworthy attempt to interest British youth in the great deeds

between Saxon and Dane for supremacy in England, and presents a vivid

attractive to the boyish reader."--Athenaeum.
